Enzyme washing or "bio stoning" is a textile manufacturing technique in which cellulase enzymes are applied to denim. As with traditional stone washing, the intended effect is a faded appearance and softer feel.[1] Because the technique relies on biotechnology, enzyme washing is considered an example of textile bio-processing.[2][3]
